Just finished the second draft on the #Narnia section of my book on #Fantasy adaptations to the screen.

55,000 words edited, with over 8,000 cut. I'm making good progress.

Now to the edit / additional writing on #HarryPotter. I don't love the author, but it's another key part of fantasy on screen!

I was 9. My parents watched it and I started watching the episode AFTER the killer was revealed.

Anyway, 9 year-old me watching Cooper going into the Black Lodge to save Annie was almost certainly where my love of horror began.

I then collected all the #TwinPeaks VHS tapes, and eventually on disk
I was lucky enough to watch #TwinPeaks in the order it came out but for many, the first two seasons were hard to come by so #FireWalkWithMe was their introduction.

Not until the show hit Netflix and released on DVD did it take off again.

How did you first find "Twin Peaks"?

Have completed a second draft on the first part of my book on fantasy adaptations to the screen, covering the genre and #Middle-earth. I've been brutal - 6,300 words cut - but it's coming together very nicely.

Now on to a re-edit on #Narnia...

Spending the afternoon with The Black Riders of Mordor for my book on fantasy adaptations, looking at how Ralph Bakshi and Peter Jackson's #TheLordoftheRings adapt the journey from the Shire to Rivendell.

It's interesting just how close these two films are to eachother...
